| 15 Apr 2026 | Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill “There are unanswered questions about definitions, what should be in and what should be out, and exactly where the boundary lines are.

| 15 Apr 2026 | Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill “I think I just heard the Minister say, “We have already solved this problem.” I do not know if any other colleagues heard that.

| 14 Apr 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “I realise that you are a TV guy and not a doctor, but in your professional judgment, you spend a lot of time thinking about children and what children watch and consume. You have both used the word “enriched” and talked about how you enrich children’s lives. Do you think that it is a good development for our society to…” | 74 |
| 14 Apr 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “You were asked why it so often seems to be you in the frame. Right at the start of this session, you were at pains to stress that you have a different algorithm, which is not the classic Facebook, as was, social graph. You can be somebody who is instantly all over the internet in a way that you cannot even on other soc…” | 79 |

| 14 Apr 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “That is a fake Instagram account and a real Instagram account. Those are old words now. Are you honestly telling me those are not terms that you are familiar with?” | 30 |
| 14 Apr 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “Indeed. I am going to ask Rebecca a similar question in a moment, but in the wake of red versus blue, have you done an analysis to see if anybody made money out of it—from the creator fund, for example?” | 40 |

| 14 Apr 2026 | Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1338) “What do you think about that? Come on, tell us what you think. Is this a good thing, that news now comes in a 90-second package? By the way, you said a moment ago that you don’t think you have content on TikTok and Instagram. Are you sure?
